Pat dry the halibut fillets with paper towels.

In a small bowl, combine 1/2 tbsp minced garlic, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Rub the spice mixture onto both sides of the halibut fillets.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Carefully place the seasoned halibut fillets in the hot skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on one side.

Flip the halibut fillets and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Transfer the fillets to a plate.

Reduce the heat to low and add the unsalted butter to the skillet. Once the butter melts, add the remaining minced garlic and lemon zest.

Cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute, being cautious not to burn the garlic.

Return the cooked halibut fillets to the skillet and spoon the lemon-garlic butter sauce over the fish.

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley prior to serving.
